The folks at Top Form Design created the Pivot. It turns the screen on the original Peloton bike into one like the Bike Plus has. And that is, it allows it to turn from side to side or Pivot. You can buy the Pivot from Top Form Design on Amazon. There you can see all…
I decided to write this blog post on how to get Peloton badges after so many readers reached out with questions. Some of their questions–and what I’ll cover in this article–include: Hopefully, by the time you get to the end of this article, I will have answered all of your questions about badges. But if…
At one point or another, every Peloton owner is going to be like I am and need to do some cycle troubleshooting. The issues I’ve had with my Peloton, which I’ve owned since 2016, have run the gamut. Some of the issues I’ve faced included: Well, don’t worry. Because in this blog post I’m going…
Are you planning to visit a Peloton studio, in New York City or London? Well, let me tell you everything you need to know. I’ve been to the Peloton studios New York nearly a dozen times since first getting our bike in 2016. This includes the old Chelsea studio, which was just for cycling, plus…
Are you looking to organize your Peloton workout calendar? Or, not sure if it’s OK to ride your Peloton everyday or even exercise every day of the week? Or, maybe you’re wondering how many times a week you should do Peloton? First, you’re not alone in wondering these things and asking these questions. Second, I…
I never thought about the notion of the Peloton bike calibration until we moved in 2018. The first time I got back on my cycle after the movers left, everything felt wrong. My bike was never easy to ride, to be sure. However, now I was sure there was a calibration problem. You see, the…
I’ve discovered that getting off the Peloton class waitlist is the best way to get into classes at Peloton Studios New York. Anyway, I’ve been trying for weeks to get into a class at Peloton NYC. The process of going through the Peloton online class booking system to book a Peloton live class is ridiculous…
When we first got our bike, there were no Peloton showrooms near me. At that time barely anyone even knew what a Peloton was–except for hardcore cyclists. To them a peloton (lowercase p) was a group of cyclists. Fast forward a few years and we moved to Western Pennsylvania, close to Pittsburgh. I was so…
If you’re hoping to get a ride, run or other class at Peloton Studios New York, then you’ll likely want to know about NYC hotels near Peloton. Well, at least I did. The last few times I’ve been to PSNY in Hudson Yards, I stayed at hotels within walking distance. This included the Even Hotel…

My husband and I have bought and sold a number of homes but it wasn’t until we worked with a professional stager that we even knew how to put a rug under a bed. Sure, we had placed throw rugs next to our beds. However, to make a bedroom look magazine worthy, there were certain…
It’s been years since I originally created this recipe for DIY laundry detergent or thought about making homemade laundry detergent. It’s important to point out that my recipe is for a powder concentration, not liquid. Anyway, much like my DIY dishwasher detergent, I came up with this powdered version of laundry detergent for two reasons….
When I first wrote my article on how to get the sweat smell out of laundry, laundry scent boosters and beads simply did not exist. Sure, you could buy things like OxyFresh to boost cleaning properties. Also, there was always Febreze spray to keep in the laundry room. I’ll admit that I would spray it…
The first time my husband and I walked the High Line in NYC was right after the third section of this elevated public park opened. That was around 2014. We’d just dropped our younger daughter off for a college visit appointment and had a few hours to kill. So, we headed west, on foot, on…
Are you feeling overwhelmed by the expectation to tip at every turn? You’re not alone; many people are experiencing what is called tipping fatigue. This isn’t about being against tipping overall. It’s about the weariness that sets in when making purchases, whether in person or online through platforms like Stripe. Imagine the checkout clerk flipping…
These days, you’ll find Graduate Hotel locations in many collegiate places. That is, it is a relatively new chain of hotels that target college towns. Thus their name. Right now, there are more than three dozen locations, primarily in the United States. However, there are also Graduate Hotels in the United Kingdom. Also, I just…
For months I’d been reading Facebook posts about people getting a remote Peloton bike fitting. Most of the people doing these bike fit sessions were in the Power Zone Pack. They wanted to make sure they were in the best position possible on their Peloton for their power zone training and other classes. At $149.99…
